`
`U.S. Patent No. 8,465,623
`
`
`
`PETITIONER’S MOTION TO SEAL ITS OPPOSITIONS TO
`PATENT OWNER’S MOTION TO DISQUALIFY DR. DAVID DYER AND
`PATENT OWNER’S MOTION TO SEAL
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Petitioner seeks the sealing of certain documents pursuant to 37 C.F.R. §§
`
`42.14 and 42.54(A). Specifically, Petitioner requests that Board seal its Opposition
`
`to Patent Owner’s Motion to Disqualify And Strike the Petitioner’s Expert, Dr.
`
`David Dyer. Petitioner further requests that the Board seal its Opposition to Patent
`
`Owner’s Motion to Seal Exhibits 2002-2004, 2010-2011, Portions of Exhibits
`
`2007-2008 And Motion. Patent Owner has contended that the documents it seeks
`
`to seal contain information regarding “(1) its confidential processes and
`
`information shared with International Paper under Nondisclosure Agreements and
`
`(2) the details of development and testing of filler pretreatments.” (Paper 11 at p.
`
`2).
`
`While Petitioner disagrees with this characterization of the documents, they
`
`are sealed at present, pending Petitioner’s Opposition to Patent Owner’s Motion to
`
`Seal filed concurrently herewith. Because Petitioner must rely on the motions and
`
`exhibits submitted by Patent Owner that are currently sealed in opposing those
`
`motions, Petitioner seeks to temporarily seal its oppositions pending a Board
`
`decision on its Opposition to Patent Owner’s Motion to Seal.
